Los Angeles vs Orlando City
Match Report
Los Angeles FC delivered a ruthless performance at BMO Stadium on Saturday night, hammering Orlando City 6-0 in what became the visitors' worst ever regular-season defeat. Denis Bouanga stole the show with a rapid-fire first-half hat trick, while Son Heung-Min pulled the strings with four assists before the break — joining Lionel Messi as the only players in MLS history to manage that feat in a single half.
The rout began early with an Orlando City own goal in the seventh minute, and Bouanga made it three in eight devastating minutes (20', 23', 28'). Sergi Palencia added a fifth before halftime, and substitute Tyler Boyd nodded home his first LAFC goal in the 70th minute from a Jacob Shaffelburg cross on his BMO Stadium debut.
Hugo Lloris completed his sixth consecutive clean sheet to start the season as LAFC moved to 5-0-1 and 16 points — the only unbeaten side left in MLS. For Orlando City, the misery continues in a dismal campaign that has seen them part ways with their head coach and sink to the bottom of the Eastern Conference.
